behind the scenes of my lenses.

true Life            i'm a concert junkie.

i get thrills and chills from waiting hours outside venues in the death defying Florida heat, staring at those big doors waiting for the rush i'll get when they burst open as cool air zooms out into my face. hearing everyone cheer behind me knowing that once i make it past the security and my tickets have been scanned i can race past everyone fighting my way to the barriers at the front of the stage. legs spread as far apart as possible music blaring from speakers over head, fans rushing in behind and all around me. my legs are trembling and just when i feel like i couldn't possibly stand any longer the stage lights turn on with a flash. swirling around and around making the crowd and stage fill with different colors, techies strumming cords of all guitars and tap tap tap check one two three. as they disappear into the back the first band begins to play and i loose track of everything but the music. nothing else matters the pains are all gone and all my worries seem to fade away into the darkness as i become sync with the crowd as we sing and jump along to the beat. i reach my arms up above my head camera in hand feet at the tip of my toes, so there i am at my happiest capturing the moment with each little click of my shutter button. it doesn't matter that i'm squished in between sweaty strangers i know were all there for the same reasons the music. and in the end that's all that matters the waiting the pain the price of tickets the driving it's all completely and utterly worth it to me. with that being said here's a few pictures of myself at concerts mostly taken by others but non the less the moment was captured and the cheyenne we all know and Love shines through. ps HUGE shout out to my mum for letting me use her laptop for this because my computer hates the thought of me writing.
